Entropies

/ˈɛntrəpiz/ noun

Definition

Plural of entropy; measures of disorder or randomness in a system, used in physics and thermodynamics.

Etymology

From Greek 'en-' (in) and 'trope' (turning), literally 'a turning inward.' Coined by Rudolf Clausius in 1865 as a physics term meaning the unavoidable disorder that increases in closed systems over time.

Kelly Says

Entropy is why your messy room won't clean itself and why we need fuel to stay alive—the universe has a fundamental bias toward chaos, which is why broken things stay broken unless you put in energy to fix them!
